Stop Letting Twisted Scripture Shut You Down and Protect Your Abuser
Have you been told that speaking about abuse is gossip? That your anger is always sin? That showing emotion means you lack faith?
Abusers and abuse enablers have turned Bible passages about gossip, slander, and bearing false witness into tools that protect perpetrators while silencing victims.
Using twisted Scriptures, they've condemned your anger, dismissed your fear, and demanded you suppress every emotion that alerts you to danger.
But these interpretations aren't biblical—they're abusive.
In Untwisting Scriptures that were used to tie you up, gag you, and tangle your mind: Book 3 Your Words Your Emotions, Rebecca Davis exposes the systematic Scripture-twisting used to gag abuse survivors and shut down their emotions.
With meticulous biblical scholarship and trauma-informed insight, she examines every verse weaponized against those who speak truth, then shows you what these passages actually mean in context.
You'll Discover
- The true Biblical meanings of gossip, slander, and bearing false witness.
- Why "gracious words only" is manipulation and what Ephesians 4:29 is really all about.
- The truth about the "too negative" label: learn from the examples of the prophets, psalmists, and Jesus Himself.
- Why your emotions aren't inferior to reason and how emotions are displayed in Scripture.
- The truth about anger and how you can tell whether yours is righteous or unrighteous.
- All the kinds of fear in the Bible and what "fear not" actually means.
And much more. Discussion guides available without charge at heresthejoy.com.
What Readers Are Saying
“To say that reading this book was revolutionary to me is an understatement!! Rebecca helped me to understand how important my emotions are - that they are a God-given part of my being that He created. This has brought much-needed healing to this area of my life.” - J. Thompson
“I cannot recommend this book highly enough!! It addresses so many toxic Christian teachings that have been used to shame, blame, confuse and shut up the innocent.’” - Amazon Customer
“I have seen the twisting of these scriptures about gossip and slander used by abusive leaders to keep people in fear of speaking up. Rebecca Davis zinged the target with this book!” - Paul
“Ms Davis writes with an earnest heart of love, compassion, and boldness. While none of the topics were easy, somehow it was an easy read. - J. Shrock
“Grounded in Scripture, easy to read, and full of common sense!” - Rosanne Hood
“I have struggled with feeling guilty anytime I feel fear. I love the way this book brings new light to the issue of fear, and it helped free me from guilt that I now realize was not from God.” - LMBBP
“A must read if the Bible has been used against you! I have read this whole book to my kids 19-10 during our devotion time because I have found it so freeing and God-honoring.” - Brooke
You don't have to choose between honoring God and protecting yourself.
You don't have to suppress your emotions to be spiritual. You don't have to stay silent to be godly. The truth will set you free—and this book will show you what that truth is.
Scriptures can be untwisted. You can rise up from the spiritual abuse of "shut up and shut down" . . . to walk in the freedom of Christ.
